Its very easy Man,

This is an excerpt from how my interview went

cc: Babarexo and others having interview with another B.sc...

I went to the embassy with full confidence from God and also had solace in my ability. I was not really moved since I have faced the woman a couple of times especially when I wanted to certify my documents. she yelled at me and ask if I trully wanted to study in germany. The scolding she gave me coupled with her strong face gave ma a hint of what to expect.

Some weeks after, I was there as well for another certification and this time around, I did everything she wanted me to do and at some point, she told me thank you for arranging your documents well.

Fast forward to the interview day..

I walked into the consular presence and was never shaken. She dropped the first question:

Have you learnt German, I told her Yes, and I am still looking to further in the language und so weiter....

When she saw my Bsc certificate, she asked. You studied computer science/mathematics why are you going for another Bschuh huh huh

This was the interview winning question and she was curious on "why" another Bsc.

My Basic response was this:

During my previous study, I was fascinated with Computer Programming Language as well as the way they works, but after the completion of my program (Computer science/maths), I realized the functionality of device depends mostly on other field of engineering, like Electrical Engineering, control engineering for automation, control of devices, mechanical field for fabrications, amongst others. My interest in Mechatronics systems engineering and the decision to further my education in this field is a result of my deep-seated passion for conventional mechanics and engineering. In my college days, I excelled in the field of Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry amongst others which is the basic knowledge in natural sciences and are also necessary to excel in the engineering world. after my response, she felt much satisfied with my response and inputted something into the system.


The next question she asked was:

Where do you want to apply your mechatronics knowledge??

I responded with: My love for Drone development has always top the list of my career goals and achievement. coupled with my experience as a programmer which serves as an advantage for programming devices will make it an added advantage. "She cuts in: Please explain more to me like a novice". I now explained what a drone is, types of drones and its functionalities. She was like.. oho a drone, Nice... I kept talking about drone and how it could be used to solve Global terriorism and also its advantage for the Nigeria economy. She cuts in, typed something and moved to the next question.


To cut the long story short:

Try as much as possible to "Interlink" your previous course, work experience (If any) with the current course you are going to study, also ensure you are knowledgeable with the applications and advantage of studying another B.sc.

Germans are not after Age and the only aspect where you may be questioned more will be about your family.

Aside this, you should be fine.

I hope this helps someone..


Congrats to all who have gotten their visas wink wink

@babarex, it's also possible you'll write a 10' test.

Please check the school website for this. It is usually for those who are slightly deficient in the requirements needed to follow the main master courses. Pre-master programs are meant to cover such deficiencies.
